In this article we will see how we enable or disable the auto fill property of the QCalendarWidget, this property will cause Qt to fill the background of the calendar before invoking the paint event. The color used is defined by the QPalette. By default this property is false.
This property should be handled with caution in conjunction with Qt Style Sheets. When a calendar has a style sheet with a valid background or a border-image, this property is automatically disabled.
In order to do this we will use setAutoFillBackground method with the QCalendarWidget object.
Syntax : calendar.setAutoFillBackground(True)
Argument : It takes bool as argument
Return : It return None
Below is the implementation
Python3
# importing librariesfrom PyQt5.QtWidgets import *from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGuifrom PyQt5.QtGui import *from PyQt5.QtCore import *import sysclass Window(QMainWindow): def __init__(self): super().__init__() # setting title self.setWindowTitle("Python ") # setting geometry self.setGeometry(100, 100, 600, 400) # calling method self.UiComponents() # showing all the widgets self.show() # method for components def UiComponents(self): # creating a QCalendarWidget object self.calendar = QCalendarWidget(self) # setting geometry to the calendar self.calendar.setGeometry(50, 10, 400, 250) # setting style sheet self.calendar.setStyleSheet("background : lightgreen;") # enabling auto fill background self.calendar.setAutoFillBackground(True)# create pyqt5 appApp = QApplication(sys.argv)# create the instance of our Windowwindow = Window()# start the appsys.exit(App.exec()) |
